Let me expand on this idea of MEBs. Don’t want your dog to bark with excitement when you get home? Cool, teach them you’ll only say hello when they’re holding their favourite teddy (They can’t bark and hold their teddy at the same time). Don’t want your dog to pull on the lead to go over and play with their doggy pals? Okay, teach them that only when they give you eye contact will you say, ‘Go play’ and take them over for the meet-and-greet. They can’t look at you and pull at the same time. Perfect MEB.
